Filter by:The investigators retrospectively reviewed the participants suffering from recurrent intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma after curative resection and aimed to explore the predictive factors for recurrence and clarify the potential benefit of repeat hepatectomy or/with metastasectomy.
This phase I/II trial studies the best dose and side effects of peposertib and to see how well it works with avelumab and hypofractionated radiation therapy in treating patients with solid tumors and hepatobiliary malignancies that have spread to other places in the body (advanced/metastatic). Peposertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as avelumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. Giving peposertib in combination with avelumab and hypofractionated radiation therapy may work better than other standard chemotherapy, hormonal, targeted, or immunotherapy medicines available in treating patients with solid tumors and hepatobiliary malignancies.
Study consisted of an open-label, safety run-in part and a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2/3 part. In the Phase 2/3 part, the study was evaluated whether bintrafusp alfa in combination with the current standard of care (SoC) (gemcitabine plus cisplatin) improves overall survival (OS) in chemotherapy and immunotherapy-naïve participants with locally advanced or metastatic Biliary Tract Cancer (BTC) compared to placebo, gemcitabine and cisplatin.
This is a prospective, single arm, open label, non-randomized, exploratory, multi-centre pilot study with median progression free survival as primary outcome. In total 28 patients (including 3 calculated drop outs and invalid cases) with advanced cholangiocellular carcinoma after failure of a gemcitabine based first-line therapy will be enrolled at 5 centres. To examine the efficacy of a combination therapy of Trifluridine/Tipiracil and Irinotecan in patients with advanced, non resectable or metastatic cholangio- and gallbladder carcinoma after failure to respond to a previous gemcitabine treatment. The study will be accompanied by a translational research program: Before treatment and after each radiological tumor assessment (Q6W) blood and stool will be collected and extensive panels of biomarkers will be accessed.
Access to the main bile duct is the first step in order to perform a therapeutic maneuver for biliary diseases. Early precut has been shown to ameliorate cannulation success rate, specially in difficult cannulation cases, when compared to guidewire cannulation (which is considered, for most, the standard technique). We aim to perform a randomized clinical trial comparing fistulotomy (F) precut vs guidewire cannulation (CC), as a primary cannulation technique, and compare outcomes between high experienced endoscopists (> 200 ERCPs[Endoscopic Retrograde cholangiopancreatography]) and low experienced endoscopists (< 200 ERCPs).
Background: The protein mesothelin is found on many kinds of tumors. The drug LMB-100 targets cancer cells that make this protein. Researchers want to see if LMB-100 combined with another drug can help people with these tumors. Objective: To find a safe dose of LMB-100 plus tofacitinib in people with pancreatic cancer, bile-duct cancer, and other solid tumors that make mesothelin. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with pancreatic cancer, bile-duct cancer, or any other solid tumor with mesothelin that worsened after treatment or they could not receive standard treatment Design: Participants will be screened with: - Medical history - Tumor tissue sample. If they do not have a sample, they will have a biopsy. - Physical exam - Blood and heart tests - Scans and x-rays: They may have a dye injected for the scans. Participants will take the drugs in up to three 21-day cycles. They will take tofacitinib by mouth twice a day on days 1-10 of each cycle. They will have LMB-100 injected into the blood on days 4, 6, and 8 of every cycle. Patients that do not have a medi-port may need to have a central vein access line placed. Participants will take other drugs on the days they receive LMB-100. Participants will repeat screening tests during the study. They may have a biopsy at the start of the first 2 cycles. If participants must stop the study, they will have a safety visit 3-6 weeks after their last dose of the study drug. Some participants may then have visits every 6 weeks. After treatment, participants will be contacted about once a year. They will be asked about their cancer.
This study is to collect and validate regulatory-grade real-world data (RWD) in oncology using the novel, Master Observational Trial construct. This data can be then used in real-world evidence (RWE) generation. It will also create reusable infrastructure to allow creation or affiliation with many additional RWD/RWE efforts both prospective and retrospective in nature.
A prospective, multicenter, self-control clinical trial aim to enroll 110 patients suffered from upper abdominal (liver, pancreas, stomach, etc.) cancers . Patients who have taken at least one opioid drug for pain for two weeks and still have a VAS pain scale greater than 6 will receive endovascular denervation (EDN). They will be followed up for 3 months. The VAS scales, quantity of analgesics as represented by morphine equivalent and quality of life scores will be compared before and after EDN. Safety parameters such as arterial deformation, embolism, infection, liver and kidney functions will also be monitored.
Surgery for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma offers the only possibility of long-term survival, but remains a formidable undertaking. Traditionally, 90 day post-operative complications and death have been used to define operative risk. However, there is concern that this metric may not accurately capture long-term morbidity after such complex surgery. This is a retrospective review of a prospective database of patients undergoing surgery for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma at a Western centre between 2009-2017.
TQB2450 is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1), which prevents PD-L1 from binding to PD-1 and B7.1 receptors on T cell surface, restores T cell activity, thus enhancing immune response and has potential to treat various types of tumors.
